HOW YOUR WATER SOFTENER WORKS
SECTION 2

2A. FACE PLATE TIMER FEATURES
EXTRA RECHARGE
Sometimes, a manually started regeneration (reĆ
charge) may be desired, or needed. Two examples
are:
-- You have used more water than usual (guests
visiting) and you may run out of soft water before the
next timer started regeneration.
-- You did not refill the softener with salt before it
was gone.
You can start a regeneration right away, or you can
set the timer to regenerate at the next 2:00 AM (or
other preset recharge time). Do the following.
RECHARGE NOW
Press the ON/OFFĊHOLD
button and hold for 3 seconds.
RECHARGE NOW begins to
flash in the display, and the
softener enters the fill cycle of regeneration right
away. This regeneration will last for about 2
hours. Then, you will have soft water again.
RECHARGE TONIGHT
Press and release (do not
hold) the ON/OFFĆHOLD butĆ
ton. RECHARGE TONIGHT
flashes in the display, and the
softener begins regeneration at the next preset
recharge time. If you decide to cancel the regenĆ
eration before it has started, press and release the
ON/OFFĆHOLD button once more to turn off the
flashing RECHARGE TONIGHT.
PROGRAM MEMORY
If electrical power to the softener goes off, the time
display is blank but the face plate timer keeps the
correct time for about 6 hours. When electrical
power comes on again, you have to reset the present
time only if the display is flashing. The HARDNESS
and RECHARGE TIME never require resetting unless
a change is desired.
Even if the timer is incorrect after a long power
outage, the softener works as it should to keep you
water soft. However, regenerations may occur at the
wrong time of day until you reset the timer to the
correct time of day.
ERROR CODE
An error code could appear in the face plate display
if a problem occurs in the softener electronics. If you
see an error code instead of the time of day, please
call you local Sears Service Department for service.
